Subject: re: re: Guinea pigs needed for new input method
Thanks! Yes, the sound after dragging seems useful. I have added it.
Of course, some grid would be nice too. I haven't added it yet because I am not sure what the best method would be. The query area is a bunch of table cells; once you drag one of them somewhere else, it changes color and is thereby turned into a note. If I would use the same cells for marking the grid, the grid would lose its integrity once one moves cells around.
Maybe I need to add another kind of cell - with height 1 or width 1 - to mark the grid.

I like this idea because it helps people who do not master musical notation - just like the original Parsons Code did.
Perhaps several horizontal lines (to help the vertical positioning) and a couple of vertical lines (to assist with the rhythm) would help. And would it be possible at all to let the notes sound if you change the height of the blue bars? That would help enormously.
The blue bars could be blue squares. After all, they only indicate the beginning of the note, not its duration. This is reflected in the picture that you get after clicking "Search Musipedia".
But even as it is now it is a valuable tool!

hmm - are you able to produce blue bars (notes)?
does "play" work on the main page (keyboard entry)? It should hopefully either work on both pages or not work on either page.

How to insert music:
Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.
How to post an audio recording:
If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:
- Record your audio here.
- You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
- copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]
How to mark a thread as solved:
If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
